The Right Way
On July 18th the Miami (Florida) Herald began an editorial in this way, "Group B, RH negative is a rare type of
blood. One person among 100 Whites, has ,it, only one among
2^0 iSTegroes."
-Behind that paragraph was a story of suffering, danger,
and rescue. For in Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital a
Negro woman lay ill, awaiting an operation which oould not
be perf ormed until she had been strengthened by blood transfusions. It was a rare type of blood' that was required—"a
type, of blood so rare" that as the newspaper put it, there
was "no hope'bf obtaining enough for her needs from donors
of her" own race." The Dade County blood bank had already
ijjven. the only pint of that type of blood it had. It was not
eriotighJ .
--As-a last resort a call went out for volunteer blood donors.
Within three hours twenty White people had answered, ;it.
Seven of them qualified. Seven of them had the type of blood
the Negro patient needed desperately for her chance at life.
It was enough
Some will see in this story evidence that White-Negro relations are improving.,Some will cite it as an example of the
way in which people of every community ought to regard
teach other's welfare. The Miami Herald was impressed to the
point of remarking, "Not the least part of the story is the
fact that twenty volunteers are White people. The patient
is a Negro woman." It continued, "What a contrast we have
here with the sordid story the other day from Ahoskie,
North Carolina when a luncheon club there sought to swindle
a poor Negro out of a car he had won in a raffle. Every
Southerner of character blushed with shame at that exhibition of. moronic prejudice."
.. But there ^^W^^SgOS^^^^&hxs story- Referring-to
the blood ^a^'^^^^_mmSB___ms the blood from White
-and Ne-gro-dOlip^^^^^^^pp^rbloa- bank director- of
Dade County, s^^^pp^lt^tfie'*Herald that "there is no
reason for such' segregation other than the prejudice of some
persons who obtain blood."
JfcThat prejudice must disappear before the facts—the scientific fact that there are four types of blood which may be
found among all the races of mankind*—the same blood in the
White donors as in the Negro patient in the hospital. One
blood. The religious fact, stated by St. Paul in Acts 17:26,
that God "hath made of one blood all nations of men for to
dwell on all ihe face of the earth." One blood.
, Religious, moral, and scientific truth are one in teaching us
how wrong racial and religious prejudice is—how right, how
eternally right, is charity and justice among men of every
race, religion, and national origin.

New Federal Security Administrator
Takes Oath
Labor Day 1947
Labor day is a typically American institution, bearing no
resemblance to the "labor days" observed in Europe. It is not
a."class" day, drawing distinctions between a.downtrodden
"lower class" and a thin uppercrust of leisured and privileged
individuals. It is, instead, a day when the nation as a whole
does honor to those who labor. And that includes virtually
every one of us, regardless of class, creed or color.
This country was founded on the theory that a nation
could be welded out of materials from all over the world. The
elder nations owed their origin to grouping of various peoples
of the same stock or tongue for protective purposes, or to
wars of conquest, where a dominant group seized power and
-ffcimilated or overlorded minority factions.
Not so America. For the most part this nation was founded on hard work. .For it took Labor of all kinds to carve a
nation out of virgin wilderness, to make roads through trackless forests, to cross mighty rivers, to find passes through the
snow crowned mountain heights and to subjugate a continent. It was Labor that cleared lands, and built townships,
clustering around those forerunners of civilized life, the
church and the schoolhouse.
Our aristocracy has always been made up from those
whose work was good, and who by their labor of body and
mind made easier and better the paths of those who followed.
Our soorn has always been for the idler, for the man who
took advantage of what others had done, without contributing either of hand or brain to the common welfare. The men
and women whom we have chosen to honor have been those
—no matter from what group they came—who have worked
hard and done most for the common good.
For this reason Labor Day is not a day apart for any one
group but a day which all may celebrate. We have learned
that only those,things which are earned are enduring,-that
there is a task for each and' every one of us.

August 1047 Sets Record For
Hottest Month In History
While July set records for the coolest in the history of
| weather records in this territory, the month of August went
i to the other extreme and set a record for humidity reaching
an all time high of 97 percent. That's a record' for being wet
without raining.
The first day of August the temperature was 50 degrees
and it looked as though August would follow July in being a
cool month, however by the 12th
the thermometer had climbed to 94
degrees and the humidity had nearly reached the saturation point.
The heat wave, that the west
coast had been experiencing during
July, moved into this part of Ohio
on Sunday, August 3 with the
temperature climbing to 96 degrees, which everyone felt more
than usual, because it was such a

^tlnity Promotes Prosperity
One reason for the prosperity of the trnited States is to be
found in the economic unity of our country. The manufacturing centers exchange their products for the products of the
agricultural regions, and there is very, little obstacle except
that of distance to hamper such trade. The result is that all
parts of the country obtain a market for their pr6ducts.
-Now if ^Europe-- or many European nations, would merge in
a sort of economic federation; one would-think they could
get along with a good deal less help from outside. The .manufacturing countries*-would exchange theiripro'ducts with the
agricultural nations, and all these producers- would obtain a

way in which people of every community ought to regard
teach other's welfare. The Miami Herald was impressed to the
point of remarking, "Not the least part of the story is the
fact that twenty volunteers are White people. The patient
is a Negro woman." It continued, "What a contrast we have
here with the sordid story the other day from Ahoskie,
North Carolina when a luncheon club there sought to swindle
a poor Negro out of a car he had won in a raffle. Every
Southerner of character blushed with shame at that exhibition of. moronic prejudice."

-and Ne-gro-dOlip^^^^^^^pp^rbloa- bank director- of
Dade County, s^^^pp^lt^tfie'*Herald that "there is no
reason for such' segregation other than the prejudice of some
persons who obtain blood."
JfcThat prejudice must disappear before the facts—the scientific fact that there are four types of blood which may be
found among all the races of mankind*—the same blood in the
White donors as in the Negro patient in the hospital. One
blood. The religious fact, stated by St. Paul in Acts 17:26,
that God "hath made of one blood all nations of men for to
dwell on all ihe face of the earth." One blood.
, Religious, moral, and scientific truth are one in teaching us
how wrong racial and religious prejudice is—how right, how
eternally right, is charity and justice among men of every
race, religion, and national origin.

New Federal Security Administrator
Takes Oath
Labor Day 1947
Labor day is a typically American institution, bearing no
resemblance to the "labor days" observed in Europe. It is not
a."class" day, drawing distinctions between a.downtrodden
"lower class" and a thin uppercrust of leisured and privileged
individuals. It is, instead, a day when the nation as a whole
does honor to those who labor. And that includes virtually
every one of us, regardless of class, creed or color.
This country was founded on the theory that a nation
could be welded out of materials from all over the world. The
elder nations owed their origin to grouping of various peoples
of the same stock or tongue for protective purposes, or to
wars of conquest, where a dominant group seized power and
-ffcimilated or overlorded minority factions.
Not so America. For the most part this nation was founded on hard work. .For it took Labor of all kinds to carve a
nation out of virgin wilderness, to make roads through trackless forests, to cross mighty rivers, to find passes through the
snow crowned mountain heights and to subjugate a continent. It was Labor that cleared lands, and built townships,
clustering around those forerunners of civilized life, the
church and the schoolhouse.
Our aristocracy has always been made up from those
whose work was good, and who by their labor of body and
mind made easier and better the paths of those who followed.
Our soorn has always been for the idler, for the man who
took advantage of what others had done, without contributing either of hand or brain to the common welfare. The men
and women whom we have chosen to honor have been those
—no matter from what group they came—who have worked
hard and done most for the common good.
For this reason Labor Day is not a day apart for any one
group but a day which all may celebrate. We have learned
that only those,things which are earned are enduring,-that
there is a task for each and' every one of us.

^tlnity Promotes Prosperity
One reason for the prosperity of the trnited States is to be
found in the economic unity of our country. The manufacturing centers exchange their products for the products of the
agricultural regions, and there is very, little obstacle except
that of distance to hamper such trade. The result is that all
parts of the country obtain a market for their pr6ducts.
-Now if ^Europe-- or many European nations, would merge in
a sort of economic federation; one would-think they could
get along with a good deal less help from outside. The .manufacturing countries*-would exchange theiripro'ducts with the
agricultural nations, and all these producers- would obtain a
